OMG, GUYS, LOOK!!! IS THIS A SECRET MERCH ITEM WITH GOLDENGOOSE ⁉️😱😱😱💥🤯

Nah, sorry, I was fucking with you. Made an April Fools kind of joke for V-day, using my drawing and Photoshop skills.
Here's an art version (+ without a cap on Stella, since that was an afterthought):
Anyway, my fake merch is obviously unrealistic for one simple reason: SpindleHorse would never allow a big man to walk around topless - because they're cowards. So I don't really know why I've chosen to prank you in the first place. Hope, you're enjoying my art, at least 👉👈
Ahem... Okay, since winter has never been the most productive time for my artistic activity, I'd like to show you a few WiPs / sketches I started back in the previous year! And here's the first one:
Caine and his humans! 🖥🎪
I hope, I'll manage to finish this before the show's over.
His majesty's debut episode turns 2 years old today! So to celebrate, I suggest a bit of a tag game where we all share our favorite thing about the King of Greed!
While I love everything about Mammon, if I had to pick one aspect of him that rises above the rest, it would have to be that he's unapologetically himself. He is at total peace with who and what he is, and has carved out a place in the world for himself based around that confident, firm sense of identity. He's honestly inspired me to be both more direct and self-aware ever since I watched Mammon's Magnificent Musical Midseason Special, and I have no doubt that keeping him in mind will help me to keep going down the paths that are right for me.
Before I start tagging, I openly invite everyone who sees this post to embrace the festivities and join Mammon in curb stomping this conveniently traitorous-imp-shaped pinata
Shall I pick just ONE of Mammon's quality that I like? Well, not an easy task since there are so many of them. But if we speak generally, he makes me laugh!
He's funny as hell, and I mean it in the best possible way. Every second of his screentime is pure entertainment. Even some trivialities, like swear words, said by him make me smile. His presentation and body moves mesmerize. His cheerful nature and holiday vibes lift the mood. And the way he unapologetically represent his own sin, not bending over backwards to appear nice (unlike someone else, lol) but instead it makes him even more enjoyable. Also he's a cartoon chubby man - one of the few in these shows, - and I love cartoon chubby men, so this brings me joy.
I may be hopeless Hellaverse critic but I won't stop loving Mammon and drawing him occasionally 💚
I was trying to draw this for the Spooky Day but I couldn't make it in time 💔
Anyway, they're my gwensonas! 🧚🏻♀️🧙🏻♀️
Everyone who hasn't seen Knights of Guinevere from Glitch yet - go watch it! Because it's cool, and beautiful, and... Why are you still here?! Go, go, go!!! 🚀
" - No, I was talking about you, idiot. YOU are a loser.
- Oh, I'm not Loser, mister. You're confusing me with someone else!"
(sigh, that sounded much funnier in my head 😢)
This time I've drawn a little something based on the thing that is very... unusual for me to consume. If you know what work inspired TADC, then you know.
Question: What are your thoughts on Mammon being “the father that stepped up” for Octavia regarding Mamtella/Golden Goose?
Sorry it took me so long to answer! 😔I thought about this and now I'm gonna say... It could be very interesting! 🤔
I mean, Mammon and Via share a pair of things in common (playing guitar, asexuality). Therefore they have the opportunity for bonding, understanding each other, experience exchange, etc..
However, there are also reasons for the conflict between them:
Octavia HATES clowns
Mammon's the embodiment of Greed
Which isn't actually bad because this might create a funny dynamic, maybe the characters development even. So I can see potential.
Then why haven't I developed this topic yet? Well, I'm not sure if I'm able to implement that properly, keeping everyone in character. I do stand by the idea of adding morally grey layers to Mammon and Stella but making them completely kind and sympathetic doesn't feel right to me as well.
In short, the topic is interesting and complex at the same time. Hope my answer has satisfied you. Sorry if it hasn't, I tried my best.

Just me being multishipper and not able to choose one pairing over the other.
Uh, no?.. Erm, okay then, nevermind. Bye! *awkwardly crawls back into darkness*
It's just my personal headcanon. Please don't kill me! If you prefer some different orientation for Pleakley, that's cool, I'm not going to take that away from you. Let's agree to disagree, okay?
Are you really willing to hear me out? Oh, alright, here I go.
Firstly, the episode "Fibber". Pleakley's mom insists on her son getting married, while he actually doesn't want that. Then the one-eyed one tries to pretend he already has a fiance, so mother would leave him alone. When the lie is revealed in the finale, Pleakley confesses "I don't wanna be married, mother. I'm happy just as I am." Like he doesn't say "I don't wanna marry a woman" (which would mean he's gay), but "I don't wanna marry at all". Some people might object me by saying "That was back in 2000's, nobody would allow speaking about these things THAT frankly!" Aaand... this is a good point actually. However, there's still a room for interpretations. This can be considered as indirect confirmation that Pleakley is gay, as well as this can be a DIRECT confirmation that he's asexual/aromantic.
Secondary, the episode "Hunka-Hunka". In the very beginning, when Lilo's panicing because of her crush, Pleakley looks very confused.
Like "Gurl, why are you like this?.." As if he's unfamiliar with all this heart attack after senpai has finally noticed you.
And then he spend the rest of the episode dressing up, primping... flirting with a crowd of surfers! Why do you think he has been doing all this? To get laid? No, he tried to prove that his camouflage is beautiful. Even when Pleakley thinks he has a secret admirer, he is excited for this very reason. He wants people to appreciate his disguise skills.
Also Pleakley is fond of melodramas. However, it seems like he think of those as an Earth culture studying method rather than realization of his (potential) romantic fantasies... Gosh, this dork is sooo Peridot-coded! (Or shall I say Peridot is Pleakley-coded? After all, the latter was created before her.) And Peridot is confirmed as aroace, by the way.
I wish I had more examples but I didn't watch this series for a really long time. I need to refresh my memories.
Anyway that's why I think Pleakley would be great aroace representation! Thank you for listening my TED talk.
"But what about shipping?" you would ask me. Eh-heh, whoops! Sorry, guys...
I suppose J&P shippers (who are 90% of the fandom apparently) have already unfollowed me. Guess I'll die alone on this hill. Not like I'm surprised though
Today I've brought yall some random yuri. Nobody ever asked for it but whatever!
My single braincell in the nutshell:
Enjoying canon/popular ships? - Hahahhah, nope!
Shipping two background characters who didn't even appear on-screen together?! - Yaaas, let's GOOO!
The background characters, by the way:
The first one is the Rescue Lady (aka Susan Hegarty) who runs the animal shelter where L&S have met. The second one is an unnamed lifeguard (I heard the fans call her Lola the Lifeguard, so I guess I'll go with this).
We created this pairing together with @solar-lens. Eventually, I've got too attached to them, so now I suffer from the lack of arts with these two little sunshines 😢 Not like this is untypical for me (I'm a huge sucker for rarepairs) but still...
